Nuance has announced Power PDF 2, software which makes it easy for businesses to gain control over PDF workflows with the ability to create, convert, edit, assemble and securely share PDF files. Delivering enterprise grade capabilities that business users require, Power PDF combines usability, compatibility and security corresponding to the overwhelming successful strategy Microsoft has employed for Windows 10. The software exposes these features through an intuitive and familiar Microsoft Office look and feel that also supports Windows 10 touch-enabled 2-in-1 convertible laptop devices similar to the Microsoft Surface.

“Nuance Power PDF 2 addresses the needs of the more than 270 million active Windows 10 users by delivering PDF software tools that conform with their familiar Microsoft Office 2016 experience,” said Holly Muscolino, research VP, printing, imaging and document solutions for IDC. “It provides an impressive array of features specifically designed to make business staff and mobile professionals more secure and productive, with pricing and licensing structures that makes it easy and cost effective to deploy in large and small organisations.”

Power PDF 2 speaks to the growing need for business software to support touch-enabled hybrid devices, spurred by the user adoption of Windows 10 and next generation hybrids. It provides the convenience to navigate, draw annotations and type using a tablet or notebook and a pen or finger so users can be productive in the office or on the go. The software has a “touch mode” option on its Quick Access Toolbar to optimise the size of toolbars and tool icons so they are easy to press and navigate with a finger.

The primary requirements for businesses switching PDF software, are ease-of-use and the ability for their staff to adopt their new software as quickly as possible. Power PDF is purpose-built to meet these demands, while providing a rich set of features tailored to business PDF use.

The modern user interface of Power PDF 2 is modelled after the latest popular Microsoft ribbon interface, which allows users to work with the same navigation experience they have in Microsoft Office. The interface includes a “find a tool” search capability that enables users to quickly find any tool or functionality in the application. The enhanced Quick Access Toolbar allows users to create shortcuts to frequently used functions.

“The current IT landscape demands that organisations be flexible when it comes to supporting the work habits, workflows and unique industry challenges faced by their knowledge workers,” said Chris Strammiello, vice president of global alliances and strategic marketing, Nuance Document Imaging. “To operate efficiently and competitively, organisations must be able to adopt and provide solutions that are easy to integrate, intuitive to use, and free from onerous deployment restrictions or licensing costs. Power PDF 2 is purpose built for business use and integration into today’s organisations.”
